Yes that is what we expected. We need more information to figure out why
the kmalloc_node fails there. It should walk through all nodes to find
memory.

I see that you have 4 cpus and 16 nodes. How are the cpus assigned to
nodes? If a cpu would be assigned to a nonexisting node then this could be
the result.

Could you post the full boot log?
